Yo all, All I want to accomplish at this moment in time is simple password protection around a rails application in development using WEBrick on a custom port. Just one account would be fine. I have done an extensive Google hunt for an example, but I all find are code chunks for starting WEBrick such as: realm = "Gnome realm" start_webrick {|server| htpasswd

I am trying to load an ActiveRecord object from an ID within a hidden field in a submitted form. How do I do it? I get this into the controller with the request: Parameters: {"action"=>"index", "website"=>{"id"=>"7"}, "controller"=>"msa/setup"} So, how do I load the Website object from ID 7? @website

Dear list, I'm trying to produce a plot via xyplot with minimal sourounding white space. However, I cannot find the options in xyplot, ps.options or wherever which prevents lattice from drawing quite some white space around my plot. However, this is quite a problem for me as I want to produce an inset plot inside another lattice-plot. I'm using the panel function to open a viewport and

Hi, I''m new to using Prototype and script.aculo.us. I''m trying to use prototype to adjust an elements top margin based on the height of the screen. I''m also using script.aculo.us to make the element move negatively off the left of the window to create a scrolling effect. It works fine in Firefox, but I keep getting an Invalid argument error in IE6. Here my margin code

I have a few functions, such as screenWidth() and screenHeight(), which I have been able to implement for a Unix/Linux environment, but not for Windows. (Does anyone know how to find the screen dimensions in Windows?) The Writing R Extensions manual tells me how to include platform-specific sections in documentation, and even how to have platform-specific help files. But it doesn't say

The following code can be used to convert a 256 color BMP to LSS format for use as a SYSLINUX/ISOLINUX/PXELINUX Splash screen. The bitmap must be LESS than 640 pixels wide (bug) and only uses the first 16 colors. CorelDraw and PhotoShop are good for re-palletizing and dithering.

I would like to use Photomatix Pro 3.1.3 on my WINE install. I was able to successfully install it after installing corefonts and .NET 2.0 using winetricks. The program opens fine but none of the buttons, checkmarks, or other window dressings appear: [Image: http://img93.imageshack.us/img93/7739/photomatix.png ] I have several other applications installed in WINE and none of them exhibit this

<%= form_remote_tag :url => { :action => ''list_setups'' }, :loading => "Element.update(''setupslist_display'',''''); Element.show(''setupslist_progress'')", :loaded => "Element.hide(''setupslist_progress'')", :update => ''setupslist_display'',

How does one do pagination with link_to_remote calls so the pagination can be done with AJAX? For example, this obviously works out of the box with the standard scaffold: <%= link_to ''Next page'', { :page => @image_pages.current.next } if @image_pages.current.next %> to get users to the next page. The tutorial at: http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/How+to

I see in the document for form_remote_tag a little note about Javascript: A "fall-through" target for browsers that doesn?t do JavaScript can be specified with the :action/:method options on :html Which works by populating the ACTION html field for the form with a real URL, not a "#". Great. Can this be done with link_to_remote as well? I see no similar note in the

Hi, I have a data set on germination and plant growth with the following variables: dataset=fm mass (response) sub (fixed effect) moist (fixed effect) pop (fixed effect) mum (random effect nested within population) iheight (covariate) plot (random effect- whole plot factor for split-plot design). I want to see if moist or sub interacts with mum for any of the pops, but I am getting an error

When using drag and drop, the browser window will not scroll if you move the mouse off the page. This makes it very difficult, if not impossible to create certain types of web applications. I know this has been mentioned before and is on the Wish List, but it''s very frustrating. If you look at this other Javascript library called "Drag''nDrop & DHTML Library"

Is there anything in the utils to capture a screen ( or maybe just a window) and save to a file. I have this, but I have no idea where it came from, but it gives a corrupted image Paul # -*- ruby -*- # screen capture -- # This script runs with a Ruby/DL which is included in ruby-1.7. require ''dl/import'' module ScreenCapture extend DL::Importable dlload

A little more followup. The gtk() device uses gdk_string_width to find the character extents. That seems undocumented anywhere in the gtk+ sources. It is returning the maximal descent for the font for all input strings on my system. Looking at the current gtk+-1.2.7 sources it appears to call XTextExtents, and that _should_ give the string descent. Since gdk fonts are private opaque structures

Hi, I''m trying to open a modal popup window using redbox to display a styled notification/alert to the user. The helpers in the redbox documentation only describe how to open a redbox when the user clicks on a link, e.g., link_to_redbox() or link_to_remote_redbox(). Is there any way to open a redbox, or a different type rails- compatible modal popup, from inside a controller action?

I have a simply script that I cannot get a font size bigger than 40. Changing the font_size value to 80 does not make the font any bigger just the background. How do I get a bigger font than 40? I run this script as "wish -f file.tcl" What am I doing wrong to not get bigger fonts? THanks, Jerry --------------------------------------------- set font_size 40 set show_window_title 0

If anyone is intrested, i was hardly missing such a feature in prototype (for displaying well formatted error dialogs and things like that): Position.center = function(element){ var options = Object.extend({ zIndex: 999, update: false }, arguments[1] || {}); element = $(element) if(!element._centered){

How could I tell if an element is visible? Not visible as in the css display property, but visible in the browser''s clipping area. So if I had a long list of columns and wanted to know if the user has to scroll horizontally to see the last one. Thanks!

Hi. Some time ago I posted some prototype-"extensions", which could come in handy. I''ve been updating them a bit and added a few more and I think its time to share it again. Feel free to use it. The code should be rather self explaining, but heres a quickguide. - new Geometry.Size(width,height) - Creates a new instance of size - new Geometry.Position(x,y) - Creates a new
